What is cold in the head9 Medical au-
thorities say it is due TO atmospheric germs I'M
even clothing of the body, rapid cooling when in
perspiration, &c. The important point is, that
cold in the head is genuine rhinftis, an infiam-
nation of the lin membrane of the nose, which,
when unchecked, is certain to produce catarrh-
al condition-for catarrh is essentially a "cold"
which nature is no longer able to resolve or
throw off. Ely's Cream Balm has proved its SUI
periority, and sufferers from cold in the head
should resort TO it before that common ailment
becomes seated and ends in obstinate catarrh.

The Reason Why.

It is said ''there's nothing new
under the sum-" and it may be a true
saying. But when the light Of reason
is thrown on some of the every day &C.
currences in life, it is astonishing how
little we actually know as to the why's
and whyfores of matters which attract
our attention. In the hurry burly of
this world we are apt to take for
granted facts as they appear, because
we have not time to thoroughly inves-
tigate them The Chicago Milwaukee
& St. Paul r. r. Company has en-
deavored to save the inquiring mind
the trouble of much research and has
published in little book entitled
"Why and Wherefore, !" many reasons
why various facts exist. The language
is plain and simple, and the volume
might be used with profit as reliable
class book in public and private schools.
AS household reference it is invalu-
able, and children as we'll as grown
people can read and understand it.
While this publication is in measure
an advertising medium for the railway
that fact does not detract from it's val
ue, and copy of why and Where

State Normal School
RIVER FALLS, WIS.,, Feb. l, 18S

RIVER FALLS, WIS, Feb. l, 1887.
10 Teaehers,--The spring
term of this school will open April 4.
1887. Your attention is cordially
invited to the purposes of the school
and the advantages it affords for the
preparation of teachers.
School Boards generally recognize
the value of Normal School training,
and judging from the inquiries that
come from them to this school, it is
evident that the demand for thorough
ly competent teachers far exceeds the
supply. The fact is, that excess of
teachers is found in the ranks of the
inexperienced, immature, and incom-
petent. AS rule, persons apt to
teach, who have thoroughly prepared
themselves for their work, are recog-
nized, and they readily find employment
in desirable positions.
The prime purposes of the Normal
School are to impress its students with
the principles of teaching, and by
careful supervisors Of their practice
work in Model Schools, to guide them
in the formation Of correct habits of
instruction and management.
The school aims to give thorough
instruction in Elementary branches, as
a means of securing that comprehen-
sion of subjects essential to successful
teaching. The literary and scientific
courses provide for advanced scholar
ship sufficient to insure the knowledge,
and mental habit requisite to secure
that general culture which a vigorous
and progressive teacher must possess.
The Normal School does not guar
antee specific results. but its ample
courses of study and its faculty
selected with special reference to its
needs, give assurance to earnest
students that the most favorable con-
ditions for professional preparation are
found in its organization, instruction
and management.
The school is supplied with labora-
tory and abundant apparatus, and it
has an excellent reference library, open
to the use of ali students free of
charge.
Correspondence is solicited, and full
information will be sent on application.

Railroad Extension.

The Northwestern Lumberman is
authority for the following news about
the extension of the G. NJ. & St. Paul
r. r. from Berlin to Knowlton: The
scheme of the Chicago, Milwaukee and
st. Paul company for a railway line up
the Wisconsin river valley to Lake
Superior, through the Gogebec mining
region is worthy of more than a pass
ing notice. 1t is designed to be one
of the important lumber lines in Wis
consin. The intention to build from
Merrill, the present terminus of the
valley division to the mouth of the
Tomahawk river, as early in the COM
ing season as possible. There the
company is constructing dam and
booming works, capable of handling
800, 100000 to 400, 100000 feet OF
logs in season. These are the works
about which there is to be litigation,
the Wisconsin River Improvement Co.
being the complainant. From the
mouth of the Tomabawk the road will
be pushed CT toward Lake Superior.
From point below Wausau line will
be built southwark, to connect with
the main line, so as to form direct
route to Milwaukee and Chicago, with
out making the circuit by way oil
Tomah; at least, this is the plan, as
reported, and Their e is little doubt that
this cut off will be built at an early
day, for it is esse ntial to the northern
extension.
